November 5 - "Surrender" |
November 12 - "Piety" |
|
Surrendering to God is one thing; staying on God’s path is another. Like King David, Aaron’s story takes dramatic turns – the highs and lows, surrender and rebellion, obedience and disobedience. Aaron’s story begins with an encounter at a burning bush. Moses’s, not his own.

One characteristic of believers is that we are devoted to God and practice that devotion in all sorts of way. One word that is used to denote this devotion is “piety,” which is derived from the Latin word pietas, which is the noun form of the verb pius, meaning “devout” or “dutiful.”

November 19 - "Acts of Service"The church was and is still built through countless acts of service.

November 26 - "Relationship"The story of May and Martha paints Mary as the one focused on her relationship with Jesus. But, perhaps, looking at one story doesn’t really show us the whole story. Relationships take time and work and, sometimes, courage.
